Edision OS Mio vs. Mini

The first link above discusses the old Mini. There is a new Mini with specs that seem a lot like a Mio.

ADDED: Looking more closely, the new Mini appears to be a Mio+ except with only 1 tuner. So it is "better" than a Mio. It seems to be priced around US$150 or lower in the overseas market.

The new Mini specs are here:
Edision Mini UHD 4K S2X w/H265 & HEVC

2023 "Holdbacks" on the mio4k+. Old chipset and soldered in tuners.
Not JFK 'tuners'....or 'cuber' for that fact.
No pass-thru ports either. So many people ask about splitting signal for additional receivers, yet so many chinabox receivers have them.
What's the deal? Pluggable tuners let you tailor a receiver. Or as a member on EB's site proved to me. His VU+ receiver blew his mio4k+ away in the water snagging weaker transponders. And he had his choice of...yup....tuners.
Other stuff too. Multistream...if it will matter to us on this side of the pond.
4:2:2. Either in the internal electronics or perhaps a stream-relay scheme.
It's said that Broadcom is ditching the FTA receiver chip market. I don't know.
So what's the sense of getting blinged by a 'new' receiver with 8 year old electronics in a recycled Hyundai case?
Grumbling? Psst...read my fine print!
